Only 2 more days until the festival of greed... eeerrr, I mean... Christmas! I say 2 days b/c in my family the big day is always Christmas Eve. Yes, this is a bone of contention between my husband and me... he's a Christmas Day kind of guy... so we have 1 year to figure it out before it matters for the little dude.
Only 40 days until we meet the baby. I am SO EXCITED. I am SO READY! Let's Do It! Let's GO!!!!
This weekend I washed all of his NB-3 mo clothes and his 9 million blankets. I guess I have a thing for blankets b/c we have like 30 of them. No lie. Weird. When we were registering for our wedding, I somehow registered for like 10 sets of bowls... and got them. I guess I had a thing for bowls. And now I guess I have a thing for blankets. I guess b/c there are just so many cute choices out there, I had to have one of each. ANYWAY... all of his things are ready to be puked and pooped on. I totally love how they smell (sans poop/puke). The smell already reminds me of him. It's that baby laundry detergent "Dreft" and it smells great. mmmmm....
Only 9 more days until I am no longer reporting to "the man." And of those 9 days, 5 are holidays/weekend days... so really, I only h ave 4 more "work" days left. It might be touch and go for awhile, but I think I will make it.
Other than that... I am basically exhausted from not being able to sleep at night. I can usually get about 4-5 hours of sleep, broken sleep. I also have to sleep in an upright position (think recliner) and it takes me awhile to fall asleep in this position. That's b/c if I don't sleep upright, I get to taste (and choke on) dinner over and over again. Oh, dinner mixed with gastric acid and the such. Not pleasant. TMI? Too bad. God really does know what he's doing though. He's just getting me ready to have an f'd up sleep schedule. Might as well start now.
It's crazy to think that theoretically, once I hit 36 weeks, the baby could come at any time and the docs would not stop it. So, really, I could be rocking it out with my newborn in a week and half.... HOLY COW!
I know I owe y'all a 34 week pic and pics of the nursery. I'm on it. Stay tuned.

My family always did Christmas Eve too and Matthew's does everything on Christmas Day- We've compromised and we open a few on Christmas Eve and save everything else and the Santa presents for Christmas morning. You'll figure it out and the little Dude will be too young to remember next year anyway.
Glad to hear that you've got everything washed and ready (I love the smell of Dreft too and I wash all of our clothes with it now) b/c you never know when that little guy might decide to make an appearance.
Congrats on being almost finished with work- I'm so jealous and hope to join you as a SAHM soon. Merry Christmas- see you soon!
